The sultry sounds of salsa provide the backdrop for this XConfession come true in Erika Lust’s Salsa Queer. As the DJ builds the rhythm on the dancefloor, the temperature rises while the dancers tease and connect with one another. Celebrating the beauty of the latinx experience, this fantasy goes from a salsa dance party to a sexy group encounter when the DJ joins in to revel in the freedom of fluidity and queer expression.

Salsa music is wildly sexy! The movement of the hips, the interactions between dancers… Its unique rhythm is such a beautiful mix of lust and desire. When I read the confession of MissDJ, I knew I had to make a salsa music-inspired movie that celebrated the queer and latinx experience within this music genre. You can feel the heat through the screen!
